CONSTRUCTION F HOSE.

Specication of Letters Patent No. 4,150, dated August 16, 1845.

To all wh-0m t may concern Be it known that I, HORACE H. DAY, of JerseyCity, Hudson county, and State of New Jersey, have invented'a new anduseful Flexible Pipe or Hose for Conveying Liq nids; and I herebydeclare that the ollowing is a full and exact description.

The nature of the invention consists in combining two materials one tomake the tube impermeable to water and the other to inclose it forprotection and to enable it to resist great pressure.`

To enable others to make and use my invention I proceed to describe itsconstruction, reference being had to the drawings hereunto annexed andmaking part of this speciication.

Figure l is a representation of the pipe. Fig. 2 is a cross section.

The hose or pipe consists of an outer pipe The outer one or the coveringis woven whole of strong fibers of hemp or any suitable brous stul`without regard to making it water tight. In the construction of theouter tube I can make a tolerably strong covering for the elastic tubeby cutting duck or canvas into strips and securing the two edgestogether. But I prefer that which is woven expressly for the purposewithout seam because of its greater strength. The inner one is madeentire of india rubber; this is put into the woven covering and bo-thare then attached to the coupling boxes by means of wire or twine. Thishose is water proof (never leaking until destroyed) very flexible andexceedingly durable.

What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent is-The combination `of the external textile tube A, with the entire indiarubber tube B, as above described.
